The command less can be used to replace tail in
tail -f file to provide features like handling binary output and navigating the scrollback:
less +F file The + prefix means "pretend I type that after startup", and the key F starts following.
But can less also replace
tail --follow=name file which follows file even if the actual file gets deleted or moved away, like a log file that is moved to file.log.1, and then a new file is created with the same name as the followed file?
